Mission of the National Marine Sanctuary Program
The mission of the National Marine Sanctuaries Program is to manage marine areas of special national significance to protect their ecological and cultural integrity for current and future generations. As the principal steward of marine resources, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration will manage sanctuaries using ecologically sound principles of resource conservation, develop and implement stewardship, education and research programs that foster public understanding, support and participation, and promote the ecologically sustainable use of the nation's natural and cultural marine resources. The sanctuary program will provide leadership and act as a catalyst to link the assets and resources of governmental and non-governmental organizations to focus people's attention on the need to manage and protect marine resources.
